Turbo on RX-8

I love my turbocharged 8. To all you haters:

Seriously though, the rx8 is not an rx7. I wish people would stop comparing the 2. The 8 is what it is. You CAN turbocharge or supercharge it safely. It's well documented at 8 club and mazdamaniac covered it in this very thread already.

And wow does it turn it into a completely different car. You don't even need gobs of boost either. Keep it at low boost and it will put a smile on your face every time you drive it. When it comes down to it, dyno numbers mean nothing. It's how the car feels to you. That's what matters. But I guess if you would rather brag on internet forums how much of a dyno queen your car is, I guess the rx8 is not a good choice.
